I've got the same provider (Sprint), although it's a different account (i.e., my service had been severed). The only possible common thing I have is the modem. I would find it hard to believe that Wikipedia would block everyone using Sprint hotspot service!

The last one here who was urged not to edit Wikipedia declared someone dead, which turned out to be premature. Did you do anything like that?
I have lived with several Zen masters - all of them were cats.
His last invention was an evil Lasagna. It didn't kill anyone, and it actually tasted pretty good.

One might first ask what you were editing? 
|
|
|
|
|
Wikipedia shouldn't be able to know your modems MAC address.
I'm not really sure what the scenario is here, but if it's an IP ban you could try leaving your modem disconnected overnight and see if you get a new IP address and whether you're still banned on that.

In my experience, if you have been banned from editing Wikipedia, it is usually attributed to something you did wrong, or you offended one or more of the senior editor/moderators, or the site admin themselves.
Or it could be for the simple reason that marklondon mentioned already, you may trying to edit something that you are not allowed to.
It would have absolutely nothing to do with your internet access or modem.

Have you asked Wikipedia for the reason?
|
|
|
|
|
Try with Tor.
If you can keep your head while those about you are losing theirs, perhaps you don't understand the situation.

I'd be surprised if every tor endpoint hasn't been blocked due to abuse.
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, weighing all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

From your profile and the sounds of it, you're trying to fly under the radar and they have your number in their policy.

Oh, that kind of whale tail.

A tale of two whale tails

Quote: the metro train being held up and supported by the sculpture of a whale’s tale about 30 feet
SO that was not a typo?

No, never underestimate the tales of the whales 
|

Wow. Looks like a prank!
There's a pair of whale tails just off I89 in Vermont, heading into Burlington from the southeast. They're positioned so that they emerge as you come up a hill: [^]

Hail hail the tail!

I see your whales and rise a bull[^] or better said I raise two of them[^]
first one in the highway from valencia / madrid near the town of requena, the second one is within the campus of the university where I studied.

We all know that Texas is the largest, even when it comes down to producing bullshit.

Where I live now is even larger, but quite a bit of it is rocks, trees, water, and beavers.
But it still manages to produce as much bullsh!t as Texas!

I can already see this evolving into a new theory of conservation of bullshit.

I remember a T-Shirt that was being sold in Colorado shops some 40 years ago.
It read: If God wanted Texans to ski, He would have made bullshit white.
